Re: [PHP] ODBC_EXECUTE has a DANGEROUS 'feature'!!!

2002-02-11 Thread * RzE:

 *Always* validate your data. If you validate your data and never trust
 anything which comes from the client side of the connection, your
 problem goes away. I mean, you wouldn't pass user data to exec() 
 or fopen() without some serious checking, would you? ;)
 
 Sure, PHP could try to prevent every possible problem from cropping up,
 but that would make the language pretty useless. It's up to the coder
 to not program security flaws.

I understand you try to 'protect' your own product, but you have to
stay a bit realistic about some things. Ofcourse I check the input.
But you know... there's absolutely nothing wrong with allowing
quotes to be stored in the database. It's just that awful 'feature'
that makes it rather dangerous to do. If that feature/bug was
documented _anywhere_ it would still not be good, but at least
someone would know that PHP does this. But no... it's not
documented, not anywhere! You can't check user input on stuff you
don't know it can harm anything. Like I said... quotes are very
normal to be allowed in the database.

It would be a good thing if you guys do something of:

1. Good rid of the bug(/feature) right a way or
2. Document it clearly. Eg. in the documentation of odbc_execute().

Re: [PHP] Creating an array with a file

2002-02-11 Thread DL Neil

Scott,

 I am seeking some thoughts on if this is the way I should tackle this
 problem.  I have two files, both of them tab delimited text files that I
 need to combine and then output a new file.

 My idea was to put both files in an array, calling the fields I need,
 i.e. $field[0], $field[1] and so on.  I need to loop through the entire
 file and output on each loop.

 My concern is the overhead by creating the array's.  Any thoughts.


A justifiable concern.

You don't mention HOW the files are to be combined, so it is reasonable to assume that 
there is no criteria. It
is also assumed that each file is 'complete' in its format (else you might need to 
insert something specifically
'between' the contents of the two original files to make the data 'flow' as a single 
file).

There is no need to use arrays/cycle through the data twice, at all - such would be an 
'overhead'. Take a look
at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php.

Open fileA to write-append
Open fileB
Read chunk of fileB
Write chunk to fileA
  until have dealt with entire file
Close fileA
Close fileB

The chunk bit could be binary and it could be done all in one read, depending upon 
expected file sizes.

If by new file you mean that it must be a third file and have a different name to 
the two input files, then
you will need to modify the above, to open a fileC for output, and perform one 
filecopy for each of files AB.

Regards,
=dn

[PHP] Help with my image

2002-02-11 Thread hugh danaher

Help!
I have attached the code with which I am having difficulty (I have also attached the 
php configuration of my host provider).  
What is happening is that I can call up a jpeg file from ./maps and see that it makes 
it through to the next page, and I can then call the next jpeg file in the sequence, 
from the same sub-directory, and I get a broken link (error 500 page).  The jpeg's I'm 
working with are 30 to 100 KB , not overly large, and they have names like grid_a.jpg, 
grid_b.jpg ... grid_l.jpg. The jpeg files view fine in PhotoShop5.5 and are whole 
files with proper termination.  

It is the inconsistancy of the problem that is driving me nutz.  I work on it for a 
while and get some images to pass, and then for no reason I can fathom, they stop 
going through.  At one time, I thought it could be a path problem so I did a  
copy(./maps/$map,$map)  to get the image file in the same directory as the image 
program. The jpegs were delivered, but I still had problems with getting images out.  
I also thought it could be a database problem, so I stripped all the records from the 
table.  Still no change, some jpegs got through some delivered the error 500 page.

If anyone is familiar with using the gd files I can certainly use your help.  I'm dead 
in the water on this.

Thanks,

Hugh

Okay, you're looking for somewhere to try out your PHP and MySQL skills,
correct?

I can host these for you on my server, I'm preparing to be a proper host for
these things, but not yet ready, therefore there may be some problems.  Send
me an email back (make sure it doesn't go to the PHP mailing list aswell)
with a desired username and password, and I'll make you the following:
- An SQL database
- A subdomain (http://username.operationenigma.net/)
- PHP 4.1.1 access
- An FTP account
- Unlimited email addresses (POP as well as webmail)
- 93% uptime (99% once I've finished upgrading my servers, in a few weeks)

You do not have to advertise on your site, and I do not require you to put
anything on there about me or my hosting system.  If you feel nice you can
always put something in there, but it's not required.

If you have a proper Domain name, I will host that on my DNS server as well.
www.fearfulright.com and www.stupidcomics.com are currently being hosted by
me.

All that I ask is that you're kind to my system, because I haven't set up a
huge amount of security on my webserver just yet.  The old saying, don't
bite the hand that feeds you.
Please don't abuse the system, because if you do, I won't even consider
doing anything like this in the future.

Also, anyone else out there that needs a platform to test their stuff on,
email me and I'll see what I can do.

Cheers,

[PHP] Re: cookie problem

2002-02-11 Thread Hasan Niyaz

Hi all,

Perhaps some one can help me.

If I send a cookie like 
setcookie(+ACI-cookie+AF8-agtpasswd+ACI-,+ACQ-form+AF8-agent+AF8-pass, time()+-1200, 
+ACI-/+ACI-)+ADs-

it does not work on the terminal which has a new version of windows 2000 and with IE6. 
The browser does not store the cookie.

but if I use 
setcookie(+ACI-cookie+AF8-agtpasswd+ACI-,+ACQ-form+AF8-agent+AF8-pass)+ADs-

I can retrive the cookie variable.

This happens on a few terminal but for others with win 2000, both cookie sends above 
works fine.

Has anyone come across this problem?
Has anyone got any suggestions. Is this a problem of the win 2000 or the browser 
setting.

thanks,

[PHP] PHP, SQL and all that stuff...

2002-02-11 Thread Liam MacKenzie

Ok guys,
I've been pondering over setting up a free PHP/SQL
hosting service for some time now, but never really
actually done it.

It looks like just the mention of it got some seriously
positive feedback, so I'm keen to actually do it
properly.  But...

I need some help with security.  With a bit of luck
you'll all understand where i'm coming from.  This
is my personal system too, and I don't particularly
wish for someone test script to go awfully wrong
and wipe my entire webserver!
That would put me out of business for quite a while!

If there's anyone out there who's good with this
kind of thing, PLEASE email me because I'd love
to get this hosting system going!

I'd also like to provide shell access, but at the moment
that is way way way out of the question.  I'm
not the most experianced person in Linux, and
handing out Shell access at the moment is not wise.

But with your help, I can provide you all with these 
services, free of charge and advertising!

If you're willing to help, please email me!

Thank you!

This may be slightly off the topic, but I imagine there may be someone

you'd find useful, including the three-letter airport codes, two-letter
country codes, airport names and of course the locations.

The database is in the public domain, and you can download it from this url:

My post values have backslashes added to them (such as to protect a

All the magic_quote_* settings are turned off in php.ini.
Any ideas why this is happening?

As someone else has already mentioned, this setting could be coming from 
either an .htaccess file or httpd.conf if you're using Apache.  If you're 
using IIS on Win32 it's also possible to configure settings on a 
per-virtual server basis in the system registry.  The easiest way to check 
for this is to use phpinfo() inside the directory that is causing you a 
problem and see if those magic_quote_* settings are indeed off, for both 
the local value and the master value.  If the local value is different then 
you have something in some other location that is overriding your master value.

Alternatively you can do what I do and use the PHP md5() to hash the

compare it against the stored hash.  In other words, you can accomplish the 
exact same thing that MySQL does, only you do it in PHP and not MySQL...

On the Solaris machine, are you running PHP as an Apache module or as a CGI?

[PHP] Funny stiff in my logs

2002-02-11 Thread Scott Haneda

Hello, I am running only php with apache on a OSX 10.1.2 machine, in my
apache error log, I have some odd lines in there
statfs failed because: No such file or directory

Here is a summarization of where I am at now

First I did a grep -r 'statfs\ failed' /
To see if any files on the entire apache server had that line in it, if it
did, I could see where any why it was reporting this to to apache log,
nothing showed up.

I thought maybe it was in a binary and I would not be able to read it with
grep, so off to download the source :-)

Got source on Perl, Php, Apache
Grepped out all those, and nothing at all either.

I ran tail on the error_log while watching the site requests, and I saw
nothing that corresponds with the lines in the error logs.

Generally, a apachectl graceful, will restart the server, and then, in about
15 seconds, I get 4 lines in the error_log
statfs failed because: No such file or directory
statfs failed because: No such file or directory
statfs failed because: No such file or directory
statfs failed because: No such file or directory

Then nothing for a while, maybe 5 minutes, then a few more, sometimes more
than 4, sometimes less.

Had a few friends look into their error logs, all on OSX 10.1, and they also
are having this as well.  I am going to make a guess here, all apple OSX
boxes are going to have this, any ideas where to go next?

[PHP] can I sandwich html docs with PHP

2002-02-11 Thread Peter J. Schoenster

Hi,

With mod_perl I can set a handler to handle any documents so it's 
quite easy to dump a database where each select output is saved 
to a file. I can have my handler take any file in the output directory 
and create the html page on the fly (where the contents of the file 
can be manipulated, used to determine nature of page wrapper, 
etc.).

How can I do this with PHP?

I want the urls to be like:

http:://www.mydomain.com/page.html
http:://www.mydomain.com/page2.html
http:://www.mydomain.com/page3.html

etc. One motive is to be sure that no search engines are 
discouraged from indexing my site plus I'm going to create pages 
and nav snippets with links to all those pages.

I'm not sure I really know what you're asking, but if you are asking if you 
can use PHP code within HTML files (with *.html extensions) then the answer 
is yes.  If you're running Apache, add the following to your httpd.conf:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html

This will make the web server send *.html files to the PHP parser as 
well.  This way you don't have to have your scripts end with *.php.  The 
drawback is that every single *.html file will be sent to the PHP engine 
for parsing, even if it doesn't contain any code, so your web server will 
have that extra overhead to deal with.  If you have a large site that gets 
a great many hits a day you may not want to do this for performance reasons...

Please disregard if this is not what you were asking... :)

[PHP] file reading and array's

2002-02-11 Thread Scott

Hi gang:

In my constant effort to improve my perl conversion project, I have a
question regarding file reading.  I am taking two files and combining
them in an array and then writing out a new file.  Is there a way to:
a)strip out the first line of the second file
b)test for conditions based on what is on the next line on the file

An example, I start the array on file one, then mid-way I start another
array on the second file (this array within in the first).  I need to
check the next line in the file for a condition to exist.

I have tried this, but run into the pointer resetting on each pass.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

 If you're using Red hat Linux, it's so easy, even I was able to do it,
 including PHP and MYSQL.
 
 If you're using Windows, then PHPTRIAD is your ticket to glory

Hi,
I'm using the code in the manual to draw text  on a png.

I uploaded arial.ttf from windows to fonts/ folder
Any Ideas:
as a side note: PNG's - any real disadvantage to using them
 instead of gifs - not withstanding the compuserve issue and
old browsers.

the code

Adrian,
If you're using the code displayed, you need to use $im before you destroy
it.
If you want to deal with it as a .png then use:
ImagePNG($im,some_name.png,100);
and then pick up the file anytime using
img src=some_name.png
You can later remove it from the server using:
unlink(some_name.png);
hope this helps.

[PHP] Re: Funny stiff in my logs

2002-02-11 Thread David Robley

In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] says...
 Hello, I am running only php with apache on a OSX 10.1.2 machine, in my
 apache error log, I have some odd lines in there
 statfs failed because: No such file or directory
 
 Here is a summarization of where I am at now
 
 First I did a grep -r 'statfs\ failed' /
 To see if any files on the entire apache server had that line in it, if it
 did, I could see where any why it was reporting this to to apache log,
 nothing showed up.
 
 I thought maybe it was in a binary and I would not be able to read it with
 grep, so off to download the source :-)
 
 Got source on Perl, Php, Apache
 Grepped out all those, and nothing at all either.
 
 I ran tail on the error_log while watching the site requests, and I saw
 nothing that corresponds with the lines in the error logs.
 
 Generally, a apachectl graceful, will restart the server, and then, in about
 15 seconds, I get 4 lines in the error_log
 statfs failed because: No such file or directory
 statfs failed because: No such file or directory
 statfs failed because: No such file or directory
 statfs failed because: No such file or directory
 
 Then nothing for a while, maybe 5 minutes, then a few more, sometimes more
 than 4, sometimes less.
 
 Had a few friends look into their error logs, all on OSX 10.1, and they also
 are having this as well.  I am going to make a guess here, all apple OSX
 boxes are going to have this, any ideas where to go next?

If you do man statfs, you'll see that it is a function to return 
statistics on a mounted filesystem. [NB I am not a C programmer!] That 
being the case,it's probably called through a header file, rather than in 
the actual code of whatever. It might be that apache is attempting to 
determine whether a non-essential file exists, and hsppily going on its 
way after finding that the file isn't there? 

[Guessing here - corrections from knowledgable persons welcome] I can't 
check statfs without rebooting this thing into Linux, but I'd hazard a 
guess that the error message you are getting is returned by statfs, as 
there is no log level in the message; apache error log entries seem to 
have levels like [notice], [warn] etc.

So if it is just apache checking for the existence of something, I would 
venture to say that it might be nothing to worry about, _if_ everything 
else is working OK.

I think you will find that the font path in ImageTTFText needs to be an 
absolute path, or relative to the current working directory. It certainly 
isn't relative to the web root. To be absolutely certain, especially if 
you are likely to call this from anywhere in your web file structure, 
make the path absolute!

[PHP] Form Data History

2002-02-11 Thread Steven Walker

Hi,

I'm having some problems with form data disappearing and wondered if 
anyone has experience with this.

On a secure server I'm using PHP to handle form data to collect personal 
information. If data is missing or incorrect, the user is alerted to 'go 
back'... but upon going back in history, all the data that was in the 
form is lost. This did not occur on my regular not-secure web server.

Does anyone know what may cause this?

Thank you!

[PHP] Cache Being Bad

2002-02-11 Thread nate

I have a text box on my page and a submit button. The text box value is whatever it 
grabs from the database. If the user deletes what is in the text box and puts in his 
own text, then hits submit, the script updates that field with whatever the user 
inputs. 

Problem is, after the user hits submit, it APPEARS as though the new text was not 
submitted because the old text is still in the box. Yet when he refreshes the page it 
shows the new text. 

Does that make sense? How do I make it so the new text shows up without him having to 
refresh. Also I don't want to do a redirect because I want to print a message Info 
submitted when the user hits submit. 

I have tried: 

function cache_control($maxage=0) { 
$Modified = Last-modified: .gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s, time()). GMT; 
$Expires = Expires: .gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s, time() + $maxage). GMT; 
$CacheControl = Cache-Control: must-revalidate, max-age=.$maxage., ; 
$CacheControl.= s-max-age=.$maxage; 
Header($CacheControl); 
Header($Modified); 
Header($Expires); 
} 

cache_control(0); 


Thanks so much for reading, 
Nate

Page caching.  You can alter that through the header() function.  But, a
cleaner way handle user validation problems is to reprint the form and data
on the present page.  I like to have both the initiating form and the form
validation take place in the same script.  Put the form itself in a function
or an include file.  The form should use PHP variables in the value.  If
there are validation problems, tell the user what's up and have the script
re-display the form and the data they just entered will be filled in!  An
example of such an input element would be...

input type=text name=foo value=?php echo $foo; ? /

on windows everythings working fine

on solaris it logs the IP address as the users/visitors (on a nother page)
but when using the code I included in my first post to check for a matching
IP, its returning the servers IP, thus searching the logged IP list for the
servers IP, instead of the users. So on one part of the site it works fine,
but on another it doesnt-lol

 On the Solaris machine, are you running PHP as an Apache module or as a

 Check the output of phpinfo() on your solaris machine...see if using

No, thanks. It tells me I wasn't clear.

Using mod_perl I can write a module for any phase that Apache 
goes through while handling a request. Based upon any variables I 
want, I can tell Apache to have my module handle one of those

My module can take joe.html and insert it as the body of a

something else like 

http://www.mydomain.com/image_of_joe.gif

then my module just declines to handle that and apache continues 
through it's phases.

SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Schoenster_Gallery

PerlSetVar DOCROOT /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/images
PerlSetVar URL_PATH /images

I can stick this .htaccess file in any directory (only makes sense 
where I have images) and it uses those 2 variables above to 
determine where to read for images and where to write the files 
which produces the frame-set that you see (the module looks in 
that file for templates to parse so I can have different looks in 
different places wihout changing the module). I say it's a bad 
execution because I'm using imagemagick to resize (regardless of 
original size). If I add new images it will automatically create a 
thumbnail (which can currently be larger than the original :) of that. 
I use a db file to cache thumbnails already created but it does 
check file modification date to see if it should resize the image or 
not.

But what I want to do is to do this with html files where I'll have a 
few templates (header,footer,navigation,boxes) that will be created 
on the fly depending upon variables when a client requests an html 
file and I want to know if I can do this in PHP without rewriting the 
url  (which is not such a bad option perhaps).

[PHP] function? variable?

2002-02-11 Thread Jason Whitaker

Is there a way to set a variable or is there a function that takes the
information between the title tags and prints to the screen where you
command?

ei:

//head
//title
// ?php
// echo ?witakr home?
// ?
//
//LINK REL=stylesheet HREF=css/sCSS.css TYPE=text/css
///title
///head

where as i would want the word home from the echo ?witakr home? (or
what ever word that may be in place of the word home) to print to say.. a
certain place in the body of the page?

Re: [PHP] Cache Being Bad

2002-02-11 Thread nate

Nevermind everyone. I was just being an idiot and fetching from the database
BEFORE updating it. Well maybe this will at least help some people not make
the same stupid mistake.

Subject: [PHP] Cache Being Bad


I have a text box on my page and a submit button. The text box value is
whatever it grabs from the database. If the user deletes what is in the text
box and puts in his own text, then hits submit, the script updates that
field with whatever the user inputs.

Problem is, after the user hits submit, it APPEARS as though the new text
was not submitted because the old text is still in the box. Yet when he
refreshes the page it shows the new text.

Does that make sense? How do I make it so the new text shows up without him
having to refresh. Also I don't want to do a redirect because I want to
print a message Info submitted when the user hits submit.

I have tried:

function cache_control($maxage=0)

$Modified = Last-modified: .gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s, time()). GMT;
$Expires = Expires: .gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s, time() + $maxage). GMT;
$CacheControl = Cache-Control: must-revalidate, max-age=.$maxage., ;
$CacheControl.= s-max-age=.$maxage;
Header($CacheControl);
Header($Modified);
Header($Expires);
}

cache_control(0);


Thanks so much for reading,

[PHP] Calendar - loop 365 times?

2002-02-11 Thread Lauri Vain

Hello there, 

I have a task to modify a quite problematic calendar that wasn't created
by me -- currently only weeks and months are shown (for that, all days
of the week/month are looped through). For every day, 7 queries are done
-- one for each table (there are different tables for weekly, monthly,
annually etc recurring events). When there is an event for that day in a
particular table, then the DetailsID will be returned and the details
table will be queried about closer information regarding the event
(time, name, desc etc). 

I don't really think that looping though the entire year would be such a
wise idea (that would be 365 * 7 queries sent to mySQL database). Can
you think of an alternative? 

The queries are as shown below. 

///   nr. 1
SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Daily
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' = StartDate AND StopDate = '-00-00') OR
(StopDate != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN StartDate AND
StopDate) )

///   nr. 2

SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Daily
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' = StartDate AND StopDate = '-00-00') OR
(StopDate != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN StartDate AND
StopDate) )

///   nr. 3

SELECT CalendarDetailsID, DaysOfWeek
FROM phpCalendar_Weekly
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' = DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )

///   nr. 4

SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Monthly
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND DayOfMonth = '$q' AND
( ('$queryDate' = DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )

///   nr. 5

SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Yearly
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND DayOfMonth = '$q' AND
Month = '$Month' AND
( ('$queryDate' = DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )

///   nr. 6

SELECT CalendarDetailsID, WeekDays
FROM phpCalendar_PeriodicalMonthly
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND WeekNumber =
'$numOfTodays' AND
( ('$queryDate' = DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )

///   nr. 7

SELECT CalendarDetailsID, WeekDays
FROM phpCalendar_PeriodicalYearly
WHERE .$LocQuery. AND Active = '1' AND WeekNumber =
'$numOfTodays' AND Month = '$Month' AND
( ('$queryDate' = DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )




Are there any wiser ways to solve this instead of making 2555 queries
per time the calendar will be requested by a visitor???

TIA

Yours,
Lauri

Re: [PHP] Re: function? variable?

2002-02-11 Thread Keith V. (Vance Consulting LLC)

Can you be more specific? I am just guessing here but is this what you want:

? $title = home; ?
html
head
title
? echo $title; ?
/title
/head
body
? echo $title; ?
/body
/html

Perhaps, I am not getting what you are asking for.

Re: [PHP] Re: function? variable?

2002-02-11 Thread Steven Walker

Jason,

If I understand your question, you want to display the contents of a 
variable to screen? Try this:

 html
 head
 title/title
 /head
 body
 ?
   $test_variable = this is a test;
   echo Here is what it says: $test_variable;
 ?
 /body
 /html

Also note that you do not need to use the PHP tags twice:
echo ?witakr home?   //incorrect
echo wtakr home;  //correct

[PHP] preserving variable values across pages.

2002-02-11 Thread Andrew Slezak

Found this on the php.net, querying the PHP mailing list:

test.php
--
$blah=10;
include whatever.php;


whatever.php
-
echo The value of blah is: {$blah};


It just keeps the variable since it's global..

When ur using a function. It can be different, since you have to
import these variables.

Andy

Re: [PHP] preserving variable values across pages.

2002-02-11 Thread Keith V. (Vance Consulting LLC)

You could do it a number of ways.
1. Use a hidden input field in your form,. input type=hidden name=some_var 
value=? echo $some_var; ?
2. Put $some_var in a session variable.
3. Pass the value of some_var in the url.

Each has it's advantages/disadvantages. Just remember that just because you say 
something is global doesn't mean it's global to every page, it's global on that page. 
global can be used as follows:

?
$var = 1;

function dude() {
global $var
print Dude that's a $var;
}
?

If I didn't specify global $var inside the function the function wouldn't be able to 
see the $var variable I defined outside the function and would have just printed 
Dude that's a  instead of Dude that's a 1

Hope that helps.

GLOBAL in php is not the same as global in ASP. It is only global within the 
lifetime of the script. What you need is a hidden element in your form 
holding the value of $some_var.
